2011-06-06 Brewers (Greinke) at Marlins (Vazquez) - [Brewers win, 7-2]

[PrinceEatMeat]

Betancourt has now tied McGehee with a .234 batting average.

even though Casey didn't get a hit there that was a good 9 pitch at bat. at least he didn't strike out

Yes, but he missed a few pitches that he should've crushed.

Just checking in to this game. Any reason Hart's not playing?

[GB12]

Isn't stopping a losing streak and starting a winning streak kind of the same thing

Roenicke thinks he should get a day off every week for some reason and Kotsay should play. That's all I've got.

Kind of surprired Zack is still in there.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Kind of surprired Zack is still in there.

Why? His pitch count isn't outrageous and we need to save the pen. If he runs into trouble they'll pull him.

No it takes 1 win to stop a losing streak, and 2 wins or more to start a winning streak.

With Braddock up and a lefty coming up I'd take him out now.

[FVBrewerFan]

Seems like ZG can handle one more inning

[theavrock]

But ZG proves me wrong with a 3 pitch AB. Very nice start by Zack tonight.

[ilovebeer]

nice game Zack his era is down to 4.87

[RobDeer 45]

Got my wish of 7 innings, is he done now?

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yep, and should get his 5th win too. And to think you were done with him earlier tonight saying you aren't hot about him and are hoping we don't regret the pickup. Lol.

[FVBrewerFan]

No closer tonight? WHOAA SOLVVD

[ilovebeer]

i am sorry for those comments i made about Zack.

[logan82]

Kotsay just looks goofy running.

Haha, it's cool. Just giving you a hard time.

Didn't someone say Axford left the team his wife went into labor.

Yeah, he's in Milwaukee.

No it takes 1 win to stop a losing streak, and 2 wins or more to start a winning streak.

But that first win, that also stopped the losing streak, would also be the start to that winning streak.

Kind of depends on how you look at it. Whatever, not important, just thinking aloud - or I guess in text.

Well, a winning streak is 2 or more wins in a row. Could easily just lose the next game. 1 win isn't a winning streak.

In a month we have gone from 6 under .500 to 8 over .500 if we win.. That is pretty good.

Yep, on a nice 20-6 stretch.
